  • Yes, there is an X-wing outside, yes there is a funny menu, yes there is a castle and a bus and a boat and an Elvis booth. It's awesome to sit in the restaurant and I've been coming to Mike's for a well over a decade. The fact of the matter, though, is that while Mike's Place is a rad building with a rad menu, it's so woefully inconsistent that I can't justify recommending it to friends and I can't eat there without feeling disappointed about 70% of the time I eat here. The menu is enormous. They've even pared it back in the last year and it's still enormous. This is the main issue with the place and yeah, it's humorous, but there is no way a server can learn the whole thing in a reasonable amount of time and there's no way that the kitchen can make consistently good food when most of the items are likely poured from a can or frozen - there is no way you can keep fresh ingredients with a menu like that. Just today I was there, and I was over charged for several items because the new server had no idea - items I've ordered many times, even recently. A side of curly fries will never be $5, ever, and give the attitude I refused to argue about it. The cleanliness of the restaurant has really improved over the last year, so that is a plus, but you almost have to wonder if that's because they rearranged all the stuff on the walls and for the first time got up close and personal with their own filth. There are basically always fruit flies buzzing around in the dining area, which is a little gross. I wouldn't mention it, but I don't think I've eaten anywhere else in Kent where it's a problem. So while it's getting better, there are still issues for sure. I don't think anyone has lofty ideas about what Mike's is supposed to be - they put it right out there. They're greasy, they're cheap, they win best hangover food almost every year from one magazine or another. The issue is not that - it's that you can totally be greasy and sugary and still be great junk food with some level of quality and consistency and they aren't there. And given that this has been an issue forever, I don't suspect they'll ever hit that mark.
